Tackling digital preservation: a discussion with leading experts

This article on the JISC web site is an interview with three experts:
  • Professor Seamus Ross, Director of Humanities Computing and Information Management at the Humanities Advanced Technology and Information Institute, University of Glasgow
  • Eileen Fenton, Executive Director of the Electronic Archiving Initiative
  • Leona Carpenter, JISC Programme Manager for Digital Preservation and Services
Ms Fenton states:
The scale of the material that will require active preservation effort is significant and extends well beyond what any single institution can preserve. As a community we are finding our way toward a network of preservation organisations, models, and networks that together will ensure that broad-based preservation is accomplished. Developing models that ensure the sustainability of this emerging network is one of the most critical issues at this junction.
